If you happen to have some spare time during your reception, use it to steal away for a few minutes & take some time to yourselves. Some of the photographs we got from that super short session are my favourites of the evening. Sure, the rain had just stopped and my dress was getting saturated, but for those moments - none of those things mattered.

Before I get too far ahead of myself though, let me backtrack a little. After the speeches were over, we snuck out of the reception room for a few official family portraits in the foyer - it was still raining at this point, so we were forced to make do indoors. I'll spare you the many, many shots we have of our loved ones: Jase & I looked the same in every one! (If there's any occasion where you'll have to perfect your smile, it'll be your wedding day.)

Our guests also used this time to snap a few selfies with us, which was good fun. They also captured some nice simple shots of the two of us that I really love!

But once that was over? It was all about the two of us. We stole away onto the balcony with our photographers, and canoodled it up.



Let's start at the very beginning - it's a very good place to start.
Our wedding rehearsal went by in a flash.
We finished off our last minute projects at home.
I had some girly time the day before the wedding.
I checked into the bridal suite and spent the evening alone.
A prank call woke me up... to my wedding day!
The girls had their hair and make-up done.
The boys relaxed and took it easy playing pool.
It was finally my turn to get beautified!
I put my dress on & became a bride.
My bridesmaids and I rush, rush, rushed to the church & arrived early!
The wedding began with a processional...
Our guests waved us out of the church with our home-made ribbon wands.
We took some bridal snapshots in the wind and rain.
I took a few moments with my new husband, just he & I.
Our bridal party posed with us as the daylight began to fade.
We relaxed in the bridal suite.. and I got sewn into my wedding dress!
All of our wedding details came together beautifully.
The Jaguar bridal party made their way into our reception...
And on the way there, I took a tumble & landed on my butt!
We were spoiled with gorgeous speeches from our loved ones.
